You know I'm in! I'll make our reservations tonight. I will do at least one pull. Car should be all tuned by then and already have solid numbers, but who doesn't like to see cars on the dyno?? :hick:

Dan, thanks for takin the lead on the organizing effort. The two changes from last year, lunch at the park vs. Greg's place and cruise-in in town vs. 45mins away or however far it was, look like positive ideas!

The family & I are definites, again, this year. We'll be leaving Hopkinsville Saturday morning to get up there. We had an absolute blast last year & we were pimping a Korean ride. I cannot wait to see how much more fun we'll have with a Thunderbird up there. It'll be interesting to see if there's anything Greg can do with Project 'underbird once it's up there.

Thank you guys so much, Dan & Greg, for getting this  together for a second year. It's truly appreciated!

I would like to see as many forum members as possible MAKE it there. Not post something along the lines of "we're there," only to back out the week of TCDD2. If you can't bring your Cougarbirds or Thundercats, at least bring yourselves and your families. IMHO, it's not the cars that made the day, but the people that dig 'em. If anyone wants to go, but needs a ride, I'm more than willing to offer a seat in the 'underbird.

Gumby, you still up for a race? You've got a turbo, but I've got two more cylinders than you, so I might spot you a car length...

Dan, we're going to sneak Paula's Cougar on the dyno when you're not looking :headbang:

It wouldn't be a party without Nick!

I'll definitely come with something this year. One or two of the cars in the signature, anyway. :)

Everything is driveable at the moment. I'm most interested in tuning on the 460 Vic though!
"1FSTCAT" - 87 Mercury Cougar XR7, 5 Speed, Powerdyne Supercharger.

"NTRCPTR" - 91 Crown Vic Police Interceptor - 460 POWERED. 14.15 @ 97 MPH, untuned.

the cougar has bin gone since august of last year:toilet: :(

if you want a ride in ole Blown306cougar you will have to see "Steve Cougarking" for a ride in it. he has it now it has a nice home... but not with me:crys:
over $10000.00 :toilet: all because of floridua 

if i wanted the car back i could. but the reason why it's gone is because i had no place to store it to do the work needed on the car and no the drive train was fine and needed no work other then some retuning..

life goes on

i'll be going in this
